Now the release bearing in the kit is a no-name and feels really nice, but Timken for the win, if it's the right one as shown by the number (part checker however said nooooo)
Took a risk anyway.
Release bearing came, is a Koyo in Timken box. Nice. Now selling at $37.49 from the previous $9.95, good gamble.

Here's my flywheel removal helper tool, it spans 2 of the 6 bolts (offset) and locks against something so you can un-torque and re-torgue the flywheel bolt puppies (untested). $5 piece of drilled Home Depot metal.

Now have sealant, everything to complete. Weather has gone to heck from too hot to work back to rain and cool. Hope clears up on install-day.
